bring STUFF. and by stuff, i mean bring pictures of work that you’ve done, things you’ve made. if you program or do web development, you might even want to bring a laptop. if your an artist, bring in evidence. i’ve heard submitting supplimentary material can hurt your application. the interview is a free time to show mit who you are. you might not even take any of it out, but bring it anyway.
</p>
<p>Can supplemental material really hurt you? Does that mean you shouldn’t take risks in supplements like you’re suppose to do in essays?</p>

<p>If it’s exceptional and really impressive, it should help. But if you’re only average and the admissions officer feels like you’re full of yourself/wasting their time, it can hurt.</p>
